24、ion of Bearings8.1 Examine the test bearings carefully and select onlybearings that have outer rings and balls entirely free ofcorrosion. During the bearing preparation, handle the bearingswith tongs or protective gloves. Do not touch the bearings withbare fingers at any time. Use two new bearings f

25、or each greasebeing tested.8.2 Number bearings on the outside diameter of the outerring, but do not use chemical etching. One method to numberthe bearings is with an electric pen, which should be groundedon the outer ring surface being marked.8.3 Wash the selected bearings thoroughly in hot (50 C to

26、65 C) mineral spirits (Warningsee 7.8) to remove the rustpreventive. To ensure complete removal, subject the bearing toa second wash in fresh hot mineral spirits. (WarningThewashing temperatures specified are considerably above theflash point of the solvent. Accordingly, the washing operationshould

27、be carried out in a well-ventilated hood where noignition source is present.)NOTE 2The purpose of the two washes with hot mineral spirits in 8.3is to completely remove the rust preventative applied to the bearings forstorage. The duration of the washes required to remove this preventativewill be dep

28、endent on the equipment used by the lab and the type andamount of rust preventative applied by the bearing manufacturer. It isrecommended to visually inspect each bearing to assure the rust preven-tative is removed before proceeding to 8.4. If rust preventative is stillpresent after two washes, the

29、bearings should be washed again in the hotmineral spirits until the bearings are clean and free of residue.8.4 Transfer bearings to the solvent rinse solution(Warningsee 7.7.3) to remove any mineral spirits whichmay be present. Rinse each bearing and slowly rotate one ringrelative to the other ring

30、in fresh hot (65 C 65 C) solventrinse solution. Fresh rinse solution is used to avoid theselective evaporation of the components at the rinse tempera-ture.NOTE 3Care must be taken when handling bearings in the hot rinsesolution to avoid burns. Tongs and heat resistant gloves are recommended.8.5 Remo

31、ve each bearing from the solvent rinse solutionand place on filter paper to drain. After draining, dry thebearing in an oven at 90 C 6 2 C for 15 min to 30 min.8.6 Permit the bearing to cool to room temperature andreexamine the surfaces to ensure that corrosion-free bearingshave been selected. (Exer

32、cise care when handling the bearingto avoid rotating one ring relative to the other ring aftercleaning and drying.)8.6.1 Inspect the outer ring tracks.

(USPC), Rockville,MD.D6138 1629. Procedure9.1 Prepare the apparatus by removing a

35、ll traces of greasefrom the previous tests by wiping the plummer blocks. Washthe plummer blocks with the solvent rinse solution followed bywater. Dry thoroughly using a lint-free cloth.9.2 Distribute 10 g 6 0.1 g of the grease evenly in each testbearing using a spatula or bearing packer. Take care t

36、o avoidthe inclusion of air bubbles. Rotate the outer ring slightly witha gloved hand to assist distribution. Smear all the externalsurfaces of the bearing with additional grease.9.3 Prepare two bearings for each grease to be tested. Eachpair of bearings is used for one test.9.4 Place the adapter sl

37、eeves, bearings, and V-ring seals inposition on the shaft and finger-tighten the sleeve nuts.9.5 Place the shaft complete with greased bearings inposition in the test rig, taking care that the bearings arecentered in the plummer blocks.9.6 Place the top halves of the plummer block in positionand fin

38、ger-tighten the locking screws.9.7 Press the V-ring seals up against the plummer blocksusing the special tool supplied with the test machine.9.8 Run the test rig for 30 min 6 5 min at 83 r min 65 r min immediately after assembly to distribute the greaseevenly.9.9 Without delay, remove the top halves

39、 of the plummerblocks and introduce 10 mL of distilled water, synthetic seawater or sodium chloride solution into each side of eachplummer block (a total of 20 mL 6 1 mL) using a pipette orsyringe. Refit top halves of plummer blocks and finger-tightenthe locking screws.NOTE 4Although the test can be

40、 run with other user-defined solutions,the precision limits described in Section 12 apply only to tests conductedwith reagents described in Section 7.9.10 Without delay, operate the test rig according to thefollowing schedule:9.10.1 Run 8 h 6 10 min, stop, allow to stand 16 h 610 min;9.10.2 Run 8 h

41、6 10 min, stop, allow to stand 16 h 610 min;9.10.3 Run 8 h 6 10 min, stop, allow to stand 108 h 6 2h.9.11 Immediately following the time schedule (9.10), re-move the top halves of the plummer blocks. Lift the shaft andbearings on to a suitable support on the work bench. Unscrewthe sleeve nuts one or

42、 two revolutions. Tap the bearings lightlyto free them, then pull bearings, sleeves, and seals off the shaft.9.12 Dismantle the bearings for inspection by prying ballsout of the cage pockets until the outer ring can be removed.9.13 Wash the outer rings in the solvent rinse solution anddry, using a l

43、int-free cloth. Examine immediately.10. Rating Procedure10.1 Visually examine the outer ring track area for rust oretch spots, without the aid of any optical adjuncts, and evaluateas described in Table 1. Fig. 1 illustrates the area to beexamined. Fig. 2 illustrates examples intended to assist in th
